Thanks.

However . . . I’m now convinced of something I came dragging my feet and resisting being convinced of.

However, Walid Shoebat is meticulously thorough in his demonstration FROM SCRIPTURE that

1. the Anti-Christ and the Muslim Mahdi share far too many identical data points for it to be coincidence. I think it is maybe slightly less than 100% certain that they are the same personage.

2. the Anti-Christ’s PRIMARY turf, sphere, power state will be all the Muslim nations.

Shoebat is less convincing that all the nations of the world will not be under the anti-Christ’s rule.

However, even Scripture indicates that a nation or 3 will rebel against the Anti-Christ for part of the tribulation.

Personally, I think that ‘every tribe and language’ phrasing indicates that for part of the time, every nation will be under the AC’s heavy handed influence, if not tyrannical absolute rule.

Nevertheless, Shoebat makes a convincing point that every Biblical Messianic prophecy which describes the Messiah conquering, obliterating etc. the Anti-Christ’s forces—EVERY NATION SO DESCRIBED IS A MUSLIM NATION.

I think Shoebat is right and Hal Lindsey et al are wrong. I never expected to say that.

Thanks much for the ping. Sorry I haven’t been on more lately.

As you probably remember/already know I have long had a feeling that the Mahdi and the AC were either the same, or had something to do with each other.

Remember a while back when I was reading through the “99 names” of god - according to the Koran, Suras, and Hadiths? And, I found ONE of the names was “the great deceiver”? Honestly, that’s all I needed to read to know that the *god* they pray to is not my Lord.

I will definitely have to read Shoebat’s book. I have long respected his talks on Jihad, terrorism, his backstory, and the related issues. He is a very wise man, that much I know for sure.

I had one question in relation to your post - I think I know what you meant, but am confused.
You wrote, “Nevertheless, Shoebat makes a convincing point that every Biblical Messianic prophecy which describes the Messiah conquering, obliterating etc. the Anti-Christ’s forces—EVERY NATION SO DESCRIBED IS A MUSLIM NATION.”

Do you mean that every nation that the Messiah will conquer and obliterate are all predominantly and/or officially Muslim countries, or in some way they are against Christians and aligned with Muslims? I’m just trying to clarify because I’m wondering what would make Russia or China decide to declare themselves controlled by a religious following vs. the Leader- or State-worship type of collective secular society they have historically tried to instill in their citizenry.

Irvin Baxter, on TV (End Times) and on endtime.com (on the net) also has some interesting takes on Bible prophecy concerning the times we are living in.

Does Walid have a new book, or is this from one of his older ones? I’ve seen him on TV, but haven’t read his books.
